Digby, the Biggest Dog in the World

Synopsis of Movie

He’s shaggy, he’s slobbery, and he won’t stop growing until he destroys us all. He’s Digby, the Biggest Dog in the World, and he must be stopped.

Don’t blame Digby, that unfortunate British sheepdog. How was he to know the harmless-looking liquid he lapped up was actually the super-secret Project X, a vegetable-growing compound? But lap he did, and now he’s getting bigger, pounding shockwaves into the city streets and slurping up entire lakes with his gargantuan tongue.

Her Majesty’s Armed Forces think the only way to stop this canis humongous is to blow him to doggie heaven, but Digby’s young master Billy White has another plan: reverse the effects of Project X with an equally-potent shrinking serum. Will Billy make it in time? Pray for Digby.

This U.K. production didn’t find much puppy love when it crossed the Atlantic, but its zany comic skits and oddly-dubbed dialogue earned Digby a loyal litter of fans who anxiously await a chance to see the big dog in action again.
